    Can you capture a logged clip successfully? i.e. NOT use capture now?

    How much disk space do you have on the capture disk? Maybe it’s become too fragmented to sustain the data rate coming in – just a thought?

    You have to give more information about your system.

    What kind of scratch disk do you have and how fast is it?

    I’ve had this happen before when I mistakenly had my scratch disk
    set to one that either didn’t have the capacity or the speed to
    keep up. This sometimes happens after a crash and you forget to
    reset the scratch…
